The HEASARC and NuSTAR teams are greatly saddened by the sudden passing of Katja Pottschmidt. Most recently Katja was the lead scientist for the NuSTAR Guest Observer Facility (GOF), a role she had supported for many years. During her science career she worked on many other high energy astrophysics missions and played an integral role in advancing our knowledge of the universe. She was a wonderful colleague and friend and will be keenly missed by all who knew her.

The gtcalf.f subroutine doesn't return remote files if the $CALDB begins with "http://". This affects users who are using remote access to the HEASARC caldb. Routines that use gtcalf (like quzcif) will identify but not download data files if $CALDB is set to http://heasarc.gsfc.nasa.gov/FTP/caldb. Users can try defining $CALDB as $CALDB = ftp://legacy.gsfc.nasa.gov but may run into GSFC firewall problems if this definition is used). This will be fixed in a future update.2008 January 18

CALDB INFO - A vastly overhauled version of the CALDB Installation Guide is now available. This guide covers the setting-up of a local CALDB containing missions/instruments which are exact copies of those at the HEASARC (EZ_CALDB route). It also gives details of how to use a new Perl script install_caldb.perl (available soon), which will automate this installation procedure. Finally, the guide advises how to set up a `customised' CALDB which may contain (i) a non-HEASARC-supported mission and/or instrument and/or (ii) a HEASARC-supported mission but with personal/locally produced datsets added.

CALDB INFO - A new version of the CALDB Installation Guide is available which hopefully corrects all the gross errors & ambiguities in the previous version. The current version should be considered a draft, and does not cover the full customisation of your local CALDB. However it does hoepfully now provide clear instructions for setting up a local CALDB which mimics that at the HEASARC - check out the EZ_CALDB route described in the document.
Please give us feedback via caldbhelp@athena.gsfc.nasa.gov

CALDB S/W - Unfortunately the release of much-anticipated script (nominally called manage_caldb) which we hope will greatly ease the maintenance of a local CALDB has been delayed and will NOT be part of the forthcoming FTOOL 3.6 release.
We anticipate having a beta-test version available by the end of 1996 October, and are seeking volunteers outside NASA/GSFC willing to help us test the installation and running of the script. No prior CALDB experience is necessary. Applications from minority operating systems encouraged. If you are interested, please e-mail caldbhelp@athena.gsfc.nasa.gov.
